So today it is Friday the 13th and apparently I should have stayed in my bed.
Just spent way too much time troubleshooting why the curl requests I got from Firefox by using "copy request to cUrl" did not work. Turns out it is a Firefox bug. For unknown reason it adds a caret "^" before each parameter separator in the query string in the curl request, breaking everything. 😞

This is the 100 year anniversary of humans having an idea of what the heck the sun and all the stars actually are. If you had asked a leading astronomer in 1925 what the sun was, they would say that it's basically the same as Earth, but very hot.
In Cecilia Payne's doctoral thesis she was the first to say, from spectral data, that the sun was overwhelmingly made of hydrogen and helium.
It was later described as "the most brilliant PhD thesis ever written in astronomy".

Frequent reauth doesn't make you more secure

I didn't realize this, but the water (called Produced Water) is highly saline so they'll either struggle to treat it or destroy the soil from salt alone.

Sometimes I do hear the VoiceOver keyboard focus change click, so it is possible that you’re already setting the keyboard focus to the relevant control, though this only seems to happen when I have just opened the overlay. When I press tab, VoiceOver seems to get lost.
I’m not sure if this is something that you can actually fix, though I assume it should be possible. My Mac app dev experience is very limited sorry about that.
